... ah well, Hans
it's not such a rare event - but it was Alex Gerst riding the Soyuz and it was a 2 day journey instead of the usual quick one. So I thought I'd ask.
I remember imagers in the northern hemisphere were getting shots of the shuttle chasing the ISS. A Soyuz capsule would be an interesting imaging target. I wonder why they abandoned the 6 hour journey and went back to the longer 2 day journey.
